Memorial Day: Our Kickoff to Summer

Posted on 17:07 by gayle
 

Happy Memorial Day!
 
 
I hope you all had relaxing day spent with friends and family, while remembering those who have served our country and given us the freedom to enjoy such a day!
 

Matt and I had a very relaxing day! 


We did a little bit of nothing in the moring….

 

….then we grilled out for lunch....

 

….followed by an afternoon stroll in the park….

 

….and finished the evening off by eating watermelon on the front porch.

 

In our house, Memorial day weekend is a kickoff to our summer season!   This weekend was no different.  We had such a great weekend together that I’m sort of dreading going back to work tomorrow:(  But such is life, I guess.

 

Before I sign off for the night, I wanted to share a few Instagram pics of our day.
